A good all-around lens. It's a 450mm on my D7000.
Excellent all-around lens. Sharp on my D7000. Really like the add-ons, especially the filter and the lens shade.

Excellent all around lens
Excellent lens and great for all around use. As with all lenses, best performance is achieved by stopping down one stop or more from the widest aperture. The lens is a little heavy, but that should be expected for this range. Great close focusing capability- very sharp.

Very nice lens that produces great photos. I purchased off of a review on a well known photographer's review/use and am happy I did.

Nikon 20-300mm Lens
I enjoy this lens for traveling. It pretty much covers most of my needs and I really do not have to carry many other lenses. The performance is excellent allowing me to get sharp images.

Very good and versatile
This is an extremely good and versatile lens. I gave it to my son to start his business as at 300 mm it was a little soft for my wildlife photos. I wish I hadn?t parted with it because it is very flexible and great for shooting models outdoors.

I Really Like This Lens
I wish the Nikon 28-300mm was offered as a second choice for the D780 kit lens. Nothing wrong with the 24-120 lens, but the 28-300mm is a better fit for my shooting out in the wilderness, landscape/wildlife.
I really like this lens, it shoots sharp for me. The only minor issue, I see some vignetting at 300mm.

Another great lens from Nikon
This is my everyday lens. I use it fo almost everything. The quality of the lens is outstanding as is the optical quality. I don’t think you can beat the value.

OK for all around lens but not my preferred lens
I use 24-70 and 70-200 both 2.8 for one major benefit - faster focus. Added this lens for all around general purpose lens, it's good but being being spoiled using 24-70 f2.8 VR this lens severely under performs with focusing accuracy and speed. Once correctly focussed focus is very sharp. Zooming is kind of tight. Overall it's a good lens for general purpose.

Perfect Lens for my New Nikon Z
Bought this as my first and only lens to use with a Nikon Z6 and the FTZ adapter and couldn't be happier. If you can only afford one lens at >$1000 this is a winner as it is so versatile. I have others now but this one is on my camera in the bag because it can nearly do it all.

A heavy beast but very easy to operate. The mage is sharp and autofocus is fast.

i got this a while ago as an additional lens for my Nikon Z7 since there were no Teleconverters or telephoto lenses with a focal length over 100mm at the time that i purchased the Nikon Z7.

Very Versatile Indeed
Why only 4 stars? Because at the 300mm end, it has too much rectilinear distortion for use on architectural or other shots requiring straight lines to be straight. That problem goes almost entirely away at 200mm.
Otherwise, I can't say anything bad about this lens, and I can say a lot of good things.
I especially like the 0.32X max. magnification ratio. One of my main photographic aims is close-up photography, and many times if I am carrying the D750/28-300 combo for more general photography, I can get some pretty good close-up shots as well. For example, shooting during a garden party ends up mixed with a goodly number of flower and pollinator shots as well. At the same magnification, it isn't as good a close-up lens as my 200mm MicroNikkor, but it takes some careful snooping to find the differences; in other words, most people, almost all of the time, won't notice.
The versatility is the main reason I have this lens. It is my one-and-only lens below 200mm in focal length (the others are the 200mm mentioned above, and 500mm phase-Fresnel telephoto) and it does all my "general" photography. It has yet to fail me in that regard (excepting the rectilinear issue noted above).

Nikon 28-300
Don’t know about camera compatibility. I think all Nikon mounts, including mirror less, are universal but I’m not positive about mirrorless. The lens itself is a little soft at the length limits.

Fantastic quality Boat Anchor
I bought this lens for my Nikon D850. Image quality is excellent. I shot ocean landscape images and I couldn’t see a difference from my 20mm
f 1.8, which is one of Nikon’s benchmark landscape lenses . My only complaint is that it’s HEAVY, HEAVY, HEAVY. Must be getting weak in my old age. Great lens though.

Great Range Good Lens
Great walking around lens. I have tested it on a D750, D810, and D850. Results on the D750 are great. You lose a little in the corners on the D850, but it's a super zoom so that's to be expected. Overall, it's far better than you would expect for a lens with this amount of range.
